Community Outreach Points (COPs)

This class is about isolation/marginalization and community. In pursuit of a theme of community, you will be asked to participate in several community-building activities. You will document your activities by writing a brief but detailed summary on an index card or sheet of paper and handing it in to the instructor the first class period after the activity. The activities are described below:

• Each class member is required to sign up to facilitate one community-building exercise in our class (10 pts)

• Community scavenger hunt (10 pts)

• Attend a meeting of a student organization—can be done more than once (5 pts.)

• Attend an event on campus—a lecture, concert, etc.—can be done more than once (5 pts.)

• Attend a second meeting of the same organization and participate (10 pts.)

• Run for office, work on an event, or otherwise participate deeply in a student organization (15 pts.)

• Write a letter or editorial for the university or community paper or respond to someone else’s letter/editorial (10 pts.)

• Gather information about taking on a campus leadership role in your future years at UMM—for example, how to be an RA, an orientation group leader, etc. (10 pts.)
